Wellpark Brewery

Located in Glasgow, Wellspark Brewery sits on the southeast edge of the city.  Home to the best beer in the world (Alex's claim), it has a tour that has you tasting beers you can only drink in Scotland.  Alex plans to retire here.

Destination: 40 minutes by train.  Don't drink and drive.
